Paul Di Vito, President of the Board of Directors of CrisisLink stated, “Julia's extensive history of community-based programming coupled with her call center experience will enable her to build on the many successes at CrisisLink. She’ll be developing new relationships within the community to identify and implement new endeavors to link those in need of critical services with regional providers. Julia's background in overseeing therapeutic services locally at Northern Virginia Family Service, IONA Senior Services and similar organizations in Indiana and Kansas have prepared her for CrisisLink's volunteer-based crisis intervention and suicide prevention programs. We welcome Julia Stephens as our new Executive Director and wish her well in her new role."
“I'm pleased to be a part of such a critical organization -
there's nothing more important than saving lives and supporting community
members through times of great stress and/or crisis. I'm especially excited to expand our recent
work to prevent teen bullying and look forward to helping our community in new
and innovative ways. CrisisLink has been
a part of the Metro area for over 40 years -- I look forward to continuing our
work well into the future”, said Julia.
